Bowersock sought to revive Faculty commitment to the tutorial and devised a plan, to take effect next fall, which will require every Faculty member to take part in tutorials, either by teaching an individual or group tutorial, advising a senior thesis or teaching a special seminar. Departments with predominantly teaching fellow-taught tutorials must offer these special seminars--all run by full-time professors but containing more students than a tutorial--which sophomore and junior concentrators may take for one term in lieu of tutorial. In addition, the legislation mandates a student-Faculty committee in each department to oversee...
Even with federally demanded outlays excluded, the JoAes-Conable plan would produce a cut of $15 billion to $20 billion in Treasury revenues. To avoid so great a loss, the Congressmen plan to have the program phased in over several years; they would allow business to reduce its taxes-and add to its investment capital -by about $5 billion next year, permitting the amount to rise to three times that much in 1982. Says Jones of the bill: "This will be the centerpiece of a business tax cut next year...

The plan for faster depreciation has quickly won the backing of business lobbyists, who get together for breakfast every two weeks at Washington's sedate Sheraton-Carlton...
...chairman, is scheduled to be replaced as chief executive toward the end of the year by President Lee lacocca, but long lead times and lack of capital will prevent lacocca from making any significant product changes before 1982.

Sales of the Omni and Horizon compacts have almost doubled since last year, but their production is limited because of a contract with Volkswagen, which makes the engine and produces only...
...Amis' feckless young professor did his best to fit in. Unfortunately, or fortunately, Jim's private loathing for the nest of ninnies that ruled his academic career kept coming to the fore. It was one thing to make secret faces when other backs were turned or to plan baroque revenges against his superiors, but quite another to wind up drunk on public occasions where prudence advised sobriety. Jim was finally booted, but Amis gave him a loud last laugh: he got the girl of his choice and a cushy job in London...
